Oh Lord, it’s pulling me down
Oh darling, how weak this crown
Do you fail to understand
What is heartily now? What’s in your hands?

Oh creature, oh love
Strained now 'til we get enough
I ain’t afraid no more
As they batter down the door

Who you are and what you say
You’ve built it up some other way
Isn’t that crime these tears divine
Love you tear me up sometimes and

Oh darling, you and me
Stuck on time as we see
The outside world fade away
'Til the dark, the dark of the day

Who you are and what you say
Does it mean now anyway
Throw off your crown, tread me down
Oh baby, stop all feelings now

Oh, we’re worlds apart
Helpless as we are
You and I walk on by
Our little love will die

Still walking the bridge to God
Thinking things that I can not
Relate this to what you say
Bricks are falling down this day, oh

Oh darling, the weeks to come
Ain’t nothing but the sound of your drum
You can stay or walk away
As I, I long to say

Who you are and what you say
Babe, we’ve lost now anyway
Isn’t that a crime these tears divine
A river ‘round your waist sometimes, oh

And stuck in tears as we’ve gone too far
Babe, you’ve built a wall
That’s hard getting through
Getting through to you

Who you are and what you say
Held down anyway
Oh darling, fear brought us here
Oh oh, hold hands, she don’t want me tied

Her hands still stuck in mine
Baby, I long to see, oh oh
Hey you, my tears won’t mend
Until the end
